Anaerobic Digestion from Animal Manure Manure Processing for Farm Sustainability

Abstract

Skip to Abstract

Manure is among the lowest methane yielding feedstocks in digesters, but it is widely used in agricultural anaerobic digestion systems due to its continuous availability in one location, its capacity to resist changes in pH, and its relatively easy integration into existing manure management systems. System types, costs, and environmental benefits are discussed.
